Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a can package that can hold and carry a required number of canned products such as canned beer and canned juice together.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 41-15175 and Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-75166, a pair of side plates facing each other are provided on both sides of a bottom plate, and the top end portion of the can is attached to one of the side plates. A can package is designed so that the bottom ends of the cans are fitted to the other side plates to hold the cans. It is known.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The known package for cans described above is made up of five components, namely, a left handbag plate, a left side plate, a bottom plate, a right side plate, and a right handbag plate. There was a disadvantage that the cost was high. It is an object of the present invention to provide a novel can package that can reduce the number of constituent elements, save material and cost, and can hold a can and carry it without trouble as compared with these known examples. It

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above object, the package for cans of the present invention comprises side plates 2 and 3 which are foldable at substantially right angles on both sides of a top plate 1 and are connected to the inner surface of one of the side plates 2. A plurality of supporting recesses 4 into which the top ends of the cans 10 are fitted are provided, and the bottom ends of the cans 10 are also fitted into positions on the inner surface of the other side plate 3 facing the above supporting recesses 4 respectively. A configuration is adopted in which a concave portion 5 is provided and a strap band portion 8 having cutouts 6 and 7 on both sides is provided in the central portion of the top plate 1 described above.

[0005]

[Action]

 The two side plates 2 and 3 are placed in parallel, and the top end of the can 10 is fitted into the supporting recess 4 of one side plate 2, and the bottom end of the can 10 is fitted into the supporting recess 5 of the other side plate 3. The can 10 is held by fitting the parts together. Then, the strap band plate portion 8 of the top plate 1 can be grasped and carried by the hand. The can package of the present invention does not have a bottom plate as in the above-mentioned known example, but instead has a top plate 1 and connects side plates 2 and 3 on both sides. If the bottom plate is not provided, the side plates 2 and 3 on both sides may open and the can 10 may drop. However, since the weight of the can 10 causes the side plates 2 and 3 on both sides to close, there is no concern that the can 10 will drop. Absent. Therefore, the can package of the present invention can hold and carry the can 10 without any trouble. Further, in the package for cans of the present invention, since the strap plate portion 8 for the handle is provided on the top plate 1, it is necessary to continuously connect the straps to the upper ends of the side plates 2 and 3 as in the above known example. There is no. As described above, the package for a can of the present invention comprises only the top plate 1 and the left and right side plates 2 and 3, so compared to the case of the bottom plate, the left and right side plates, and the left and right handbag plates as in the above-mentioned known example. As a result, the number of components is reduced, the structure is simplified, and the amount of materials used is reduced.

【Example】

 Hereinafter, the embodiment of the present invention shown in the drawings will be described in detail. This example illustrates a package for beer cans. First, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, in this package, a top plate 1 is horizontally arranged in a central portion, and left and right side end portions of the top plate 1 are provided with side plates 2 via hinges 11 and 12, respectively. , 3 are connected integrally and flexibly. In addition, as shown in FIG. 1, the side plates 2 and 3 are bent at a substantially right angle with respect to the top plate 1 so as to hang down. The top plate 1 and the pair of side plates 2 and 3 are integrally formed by using a transparent thin plate plastic having appropriate rigidity as a material.

On the inner surface of the left side plate 2, as shown in FIG. 5, there is provided a circular supporting recess 4 whose inner diameter is set so that the top end of the can 10 fits slightly tightly. As shown in FIG. 3, the supporting recesses 4 are provided in a total of 12 places in a horizontal 3 row and vertical 4 row arrangement. That is, the package is designed to hold a dozen canned beers. Further, inside the supporting recess 4, a groove 9 is provided in a circumferential shape for fitting and locking a winding portion of the can lid which slightly projects to the outer peripheral portion of the top end of the can 10.

As shown in FIG. 5, the inner surface of the right side plate 3 is also provided with a circular supporting recess 5 whose inner diameter is set so that the bottom end of the can 10 fits slightly tightly. The supporting recesses 5 are respectively provided at positions facing the supporting recesses 4 provided on the left side plate 2. Nothing corresponding to the groove 9 provided inside the supporting recess 4 is provided inside the supporting recess 5. This is because the present embodiment is intended for a beer can having a structure in which there is no winding portion on the outer peripheral portion of the bottom end. Therefore, in the case of a can having a structure in which the outer peripheral portion of the bottom end also has a winding portion, the groove 9 as described above may be provided inside the supporting recess 5.

Next, as shown in FIG. 2, the top plate 1 is provided with notch holes 6 and 7 at the left and right ends contacting the left and right side plates 2 and 3, respectively, so as to form the central portions thereof. A strip band portion 8 for a handle is provided in the portion, which is narrow and long in the front-rear direction. Therefore, it is possible to insert the hand into the notch holes 6 and 7 and grasp the band plate portion 8 for the handle.

In the above-described embodiment, the side plates 2 and 3 are substantially rectangular in shape, and the supporting recesses 4 and 5 are provided in a total of 12 positions in a horizontal 3 row and vertical 4 row arrangement. The shape and the arrangement and number of the supporting recesses 4 and 5 are not limited to these, but may be freely selected.

[0011]

[Effect of device]

 The can package of the present invention is as described above, and has the convenience that it can hold and carry a required number of canned products such as canned beer and canned juice at once. In addition, if the side plates 2 and 3 on both sides are extended horizontally and placed with their inner surfaces facing upward, it is convenient that the supporting recesses 4 and 5 can be used as trays by inserting knobs or the like. Since the can package of the present invention is composed of only the pair of side plates 2 and 3 and the top plate 1 integrally formed so as to connect them, the can package is connected to the upper ends of the left and right side plates of the conventional product. It is not necessary to use a plate for carrying hands or a bottom plate that connects the lower ends of the left and right side plates, which reduces the number of components, that is, simplifies the structure and reduces the amount of material used. There is an advantage that it can be reduced.
